Chapter 5 Entry

"I think... let it go."

No one expected that Carmen's response would be rejected in the face of the judge's invitation.

"I'm not a kindergarten teacher, I'm not interested in accompanying the kind of nonsense among children." After a second pause, Carmen added.

"Ha?" The judge was stunned for a moment, "What did you say, did I hear it wrong?"

Carmen's tone was cold and his words were mean: "In the current situation, you still talked to me about the so-called 'bet' and 'game', don't you think it's ridiculous?

"If you are an ordinary kidnapper, it's fine. At least I have the bargaining chip like "ransom" and I can play with you.

"But you are not a kidnapper, you are a judge.

"You planned to kill Borg from the beginning, so you are now holding something that is worthless to you and can be discarded at any time and ask me to bet with you.

"This kind of thing...is like a person holding a gun saying to an unarmed person, 'Let's fight'; as long as you want, you can break your promise, foul, and tear your votes at any time... In short, the initiative is always in your hands, and even if you can't win, you will never lose.

"So, in my opinion, this is not a bet that adults will make, but an unreasonable demand that only a smart kindergarten genius will make if they don't even understand the most basic spirit of contract."

She said this long paragraph in one breath, and with reasonable grounds, she rejected the other party's "opportunity to rescue the hostages" and did not mock the judge with any dirty words.

Although her subordinates also felt that this sounded very satisfying, from a rational point of view... this approach is obviously very bad.

Anyone can immediately calculate this account. If the judge hung up the phone after hearing this, then... first, the hostages will die; second, they will bear at least part of the direct responsibility for the death of the hostages; third, after several months of investigation, they finally contacted the prisoner, made a little progress, and it is likely to be interrupted again.

However, Carmen firmly believed that... his response was correct.

To deal with a judge who goes against common sense, you have to use a method that goes against common sense; if you are bound by morality and responsibilities, you will never win him, because a lunatic like him is not bound by any constraints. If you passively follow him and follow his wishes, you will inevitably be half a step ahead of him; and... if you do that, he will soon lose interest in you.

Carmen has a very thorough study of criminal psychology, and she knows very well... To "play" with such people, you must turn yourself into someone who is free from the rules.

In this way, you can be on an equal footing with him; in this way, he will take the bait.

"Sir Moleno..." After a few seconds of silence, the judge's handling voice came from under the mask again, "Is this really good?" His tone did not change, and there was no sign of being angry at all. "There are more than 5,000 viewers in the live broadcast room now. As an officer of FCPs, he ignores the safety of the hostages..."

"Anyway, you didn't turn on the hands-free, they couldn't hear me at all, right?" Carmen interrupted before he finished speaking, "All the audience heard was your one-sided line. Who knows if that was made up by you? Take a step back... Even if you turn on the hands-free, how can you prove to the audience that this call was not a play you deliberately let your accomplices come in and act together?

"After all,... the people who come to this live broadcast room to see you kill people don't believe you; they just believe in things they are willing to believe. Even if the "evidence" you have produced will be forged, they will believe it because they are happy to see those who are notorious and impolite being sanctioned, so they all called "crime" before you show the evidence.

"But if they encounter something that has nothing to do with 'judgment' itself, they will never trust you guys who are murderous and have unknown origins.

"It's like at this moment, do you say I'm from FCPs? What about the evidence? Just a mobile phone number and a voice?

"I really don't care about Borg's death. I'm just telling you here, so what? What can you do when you hide behind a mask? Write an anonymous letter to the media? Or send an email to FCP's external email to report me?

"Judge, if you want to play the 'game', you have to be able to play it yourself first... Don't always try to threaten me with things that I don't care about at all, so as to gain an advantage.

"Your behavior... will only suck my patience."

The judge fell into silence again, this time it took a long time, which made the agents in the command room more nervous.

Even if the judge immediately became angry and hung up the phone, it was not surprising.

"Puff...haha...hahaha..." However, immediately afterwards, the judge burst into laughter, laughing incredibly joyful and extremely wild.

At this moment when the agents were all relieved, Carmen... was a little nervous.

It is certainly a good thing for the other party to take the bait, but Carmen knew that just in the past breath, the judge must have thought of a "game that meets her requirements". This smile was by no means a bluff, but a source of confidence and a distorted pleasure.

"Hello!" After a while, the judge took a deep breath and shouted "Okay", and then said, "Please forgive me for my previous rudeness and incompetence. Chief Moleno, after all, I haven't met someone like you for a long time."

"His he actually apologized?" At this moment, both the audience and the agents at FCP were shocked. Based on the character design of the judge they have seen in the past few months, this kind of scene is simply unimaginable.

"I agree with the guidelines you proposed." Two seconds later, the judge said again, "You are right. If you want to 'play', you should play fairly, that's interesting; it's rare to meet an opponent like you... Hehe..." He couldn't help laughing sinisterly, and said in a tone that was addicted to something, "Hiss...ah... It would be a pity not to be happy."

"Although I can't understand your morbid mood, I should be very happy when I arrest you." Carmen was not affected by the other party's emotions at all, and was still cold and responded unwillingly.

"Haha... OK, it depends on who can laugh to the end." The judge said this, paused, his tone suddenly changed, "Then... I'll just say it right here." He pointed to the camera, "Dear viewers, you guys listen, I'm not kidding..."

At this time, even the cameraman moved his head a little from the back of the machine and glanced at the judge.

The judge said calmly: "The next trial show is the first day of the lunar calendar half a month later... I will judge Frederick William Graff, the minister of the European headquarters.

"That's right, it's your immediate boss, Chief Moleno.

"If you can catch me before he is judged by me, in the next fifteen days, you will win.

“But if I succeed in taking Chief Graff away and judging him, you understand that you are fully responsible without me saying that.

"Even if I don't do anything at that time, the federal government will not spare you easily."

The conditions he put forward this time may sound like nothing wrong, but they are actually unfair.

And... it is unfair to the judge himself.

The judge is like a thief who sends notice to the police before stealing. With the premise that he has clearly stated his goal, organizations like FCP naturally have countless ways to properly protect the goal.

In addition, from the perspective of "the cost after failure", it is obviously the judge's risk: if he loses, it means arrest, and what is waiting for him next is torture and death penalty; while Carmen is different. Carmen loses at most is considered a dereliction of duty. With her personal ability, the Federation may also give her a chance and will not give her excessive punishment. Besides... She also has a dark family background behind her, and it is unknown whether the upper class dares to punish her.

"Then, it's just a matter of fact." Carmen would not miss this opportunity, and there was no reason to miss it.

No matter how outrageous she acted, she was still firmly standing in her heart as an FCP agent. The previous words and deeds that went beyond the line were just disguised to gain an advantage for herself. Everything was for the purpose of "solving the case" and serving the two ultimate goals of "arrest the judge".

When the enemy retreats, I advance and press forward step by step until the other party has no way to escape.

This is how Carmen Moleno acted. So far, she has arrested countless prisoners who claim to be "high IQ criminals", and these people have lost in the game with Carmen without exception.

Beep

As soon as the words "One word is determined" ended, Carmen took the initiative to hang up the phone, which was undoubtedly an unexpected move.

Some women have this kind of talent, and they can use the trick of "playing hard to get" in a superb way without having to think deliberately.

This feeling that is difficult to control is very attractive, especially those who are extremely narcissistic like judges, who are irresistible.

"Ho~ I hung up after I achieved my goal, but it was so ruthless." The judge who was hung up the phone muttered in a playful tone and put away his cell phone.

Then he turned around and left, while walking, saying, "Today's trial show ends here."

He left so suddenly... He didn't even look at Borg, who was dying on the chair, as if it was a piece of garbage that had nothing to do with him.

"Hey!" At this moment, the cameraman outside the camera finally spoke, and his voice was undoubtedly also released through the voice changer, "What should I do if Borg?"

"Didn't you see the vote result? 'Sincere'... I took him to shoot some 'small movies of getting along well with humans and animals' until he died; and all the property under his name and his family were hacked to him and donated to the rebels." The judge finished the sentence quickly and walked into the darkness completely.

He obviously had already thought about Borg's method of handling it and had already prepared for implementation.

Originally, the judge planned to torture Borg slowly in this show, allowing the audience to watch the latter slowly be defeated mentally and physically, but... Carmen's appearance made him lose interest in these things.

This feeling...is like when you are playing with an ordinary toy, someone suddenly gives you an updated new toy, more fun new toy toy.

…………

The judge who left the camera location came to a lounge and sat down.

Was it

He was about to take off his mask and smash his phone, but unexpectedly... the phone actually rang again.

The judge looked at the caller ID and it was a different number from the previous phone call.

"Hey?" He thought for two seconds and started to pick it up.

"Hello!" The other party's tone sounded very excited, and even his voice trembled, "I...I...I...I am...Hull, Hull Schneider."

"Do I know you?" The judge responded calmly, thinking about the other party's possible identity.

"I...I just watched your show on the website of 'Fengdu Luoshan'...that's it...judgment...judgment..." Hull's stuttering words made the judge feel a little impatient.

However, the judge soon thought of something and chuckled: "Ha...Mr. Schneider..."

"Just call me Hull! Mr. Judge." Hull interrupted the judge and interrupted him at this time.

"Okay, Hull..." The judge was not angry, "Suppose you are really an audience member, not a fake FCP agent... Then I have to praise you here because you solved the puzzle I gave about nine minutes ago."

This sentence seemed to the judge as a sarcastic statement, but it was a literal complimentary meaning when it fell into Hull's ears.

"Thank you... Thank you! Mr. Judge." Hull's tone sounded even more excited.

"So... besides getting praise, what else do you want from me? Hull." The judge said again.

"I want to follow you! Mr. Judge." Hull replied at a very fast speed, "I also want to be a part of the 'Judgement Show'! You shouldn't work alone, right? At least there is a cameraman helping you, he was also talking on the live broadcast just now, right? And... arresting targets, setting up scenes, and investigating intelligence requires manpower, right? I can help you! I am still very confident in computers, and I have good physical fitness, even if I do odd jobs..."

"Hahaha..." The judge interrupted the other party with laughter, "Okay, OK, Hull, easy... easy..." He paused, "I understand what you mean, I will consider it."

"Slow down!" Hull had already noticed that the other party was about to hang up the phone, "You might be perfunctory to me, right?"

Hull really guessed this point correctly; it was not because Hull's calculations on people's hearts were so outstanding, but... there were too many moments in his life that he could guess 100% based on experience alone.

"Oh?" As a result, Hull's tough attitude at this last moment really changed the judge's mind, "It seems... you are serious."

"Of course!" Hull replied firmly.

"But my side is not that casual, you know?" the judge said again.

"I know... do you need me to prove my identity?" Hull said, "What kind of form do you think is more appropriate?"

"You don't have to do it, I will investigate that kind of thing myself." said the judge. "Anyway... no matter what the result is, I will tell you, just wait."
